Inflation cooled in June. The PCE Price Index found prices declined 1.10of a percent last month. For the year ending in June, inflation came in at 3.7%, which was an improvement to 3.3%.

A special Republican Senate primary in South Carolina to replace Lindsey Graham as the GOP nominee in November will be August 11th.

back to Wall street as the dow goes up 350 points. The NASDAQ's gaining 623. Getting back all of yesterday's losses and then some. The S&P 500, adding 95 points. Two big name tech stocks are movers. Microsoft is surging up 15% on pace for its best day in six years after an earnings report showed better than expected results in AI investments. But Meta is falling 9% after the Facebook and Instagram parent company reported worse than expected earnings. And speaking of social media, lawsuits are coming over posts related to the death of a teenager in Mississippi found dead in coastal waters after a Fourth of July party.

The investigation into the death of 18 year old Nolan Wells is yet to be completed, and the teen's family has already expressed concerns over law enforcement, saying foul play was unlikely. But now an attorney representing a friend of Wells is preparing lawsuits against online creators over allegedly false claims. Bart Edmiston Jr. Says not only are accusations being levied against him via social media, but also his address is being published along with photos of his family's home and information on his family members. The Edmondsons are not the first family connected to the case to claim they've been threatened. EBEN brown, FOX NEWS.

For those of you who bought a Powerball ticket, you did not wake up to a fortune, but you have another shot at it since nobody won.

The estimated jackpot for Saturday night's powerball drawing is $707 million, the second biggest lottery prize of the year so far. There was an $800 million winning mega millions ticket Tuesday sold in Florida. No one's hit all the powerball numbers since May 2nd. Those jackpots are if the winner collects in 30 annual installments before taxes. It's usually a little more than half. Taking it as a lump sum depends on interest rates. Powerball tickets started being sold in the United Kingdom last week. Chris Foster, FOX News.
